RE: Forcing 'tell app' to use carbon, rather than classic app

As a right newbie, I was similarly baffled this morning when looking at a little AS application that created an HTML document and automatically called on a specified browser to open it. The script used the 'file id "MSIE"' syntax to run Internet Explorer. I wanted to change it to Chimera, but Chimera's a package and thus has no creator type. What is the OS X way of doing this?


I remember learning awhile ago how this binding is created, and I
vaguely remember under OS 9 it was based on the app file's type or
creator. I assume it's a bit different under OS X.

Can anyone offer a fix for this problem.

Thanks ahead of time for your help.

Cheers,
Bill Bug
